Hi

So after having had to break down my 1.5m SPS system, due to my little ones health broblmes and us traveling extensively to Cape Town, I have decided its time to get something going again....as we will spent lots of time at home now (cant take little one out of house just yet)..:)

I starting planning and the ball is on the roll, with some goodies already arriving and tank, sump and cabinet on its way....

Specs:

Tank: 700 x 600 x 400 (water level at 360), rimless, starfire.
Sump, 600 x 600 (inlet, sock holders, refugium, RO chameber, return)
Cabinet - high gloss black

Equipment:

Already arrived:
Ecotech Radion Pro Gen 3 :thumbup:
BM Curve 5 Skimmer
Reef Octo Essence return pump
Hailea Chiller
Jeboa WR-8 Wireless Pumps x 2

Reused Equipment:
Tripple Dosing Pump

Pics to follow.....:)

Oh, very very impressed with this Curve 5 skimmer.....silent as night.....had to double check to see if its running.....bubbles (in the bath tub)....is super fine and looks like it will be a great piece of kit....also the pump only uses 8watts.....so far the combined power consumption of the sump area will be about 45 watts.....:thumbup:
 
LOL, as per your instruction....im keeping it as compensation for still waiting for my tank.... @Watermark :)

Check the for sale threads in the near future....might sell it to make up for some other expenses...:p

Just an update:

Got my custom bracket for Radion back....just need to finish tank mount part, then I will get it sprayed gloss black to match the Radion.
